New guy saying hello

Post by coli »

Hey all, I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I just picked up a matrix 380, this is my first crossbow. I haven't done alot with it yet, so far just sighting it in. I am really liking this crossbow. I happy with my purchase, after debating over a 330, 355, 380 or a 405. I look forward to getting advice from this site on tips and tricks

Once you get past the UPS brown house coat, the guy seen hanging around his mail box in his undies, the big meat, pank vanes and a few other oddities, you'll be OK..............

welcome to the jungle!

Ah the 380, I love them bows. The first shot I had with the 380 was at a worn rinehart target and I was sure I missed. There was no arrow stuck in the target!! my y25 and the compound vertical I use the arrows would stick 1/2 way. The 380 shot that arrow clean thru the target into the dirt pile behind it! :shock: new target time dedicated for 380 use.

and I agree with Boo, watch out for them Dutchies. They are veird, and cannot be trusted. :mrgreen: but the lil leprechaun will catch ya off guard no matter how hard you keep an eye out for him that's why hes called boo
